Caution
Prior to using the ULN systems, it is highly recommended to clean the output bulkhead as well as the
connector facets to be connected to the bulkhead. Failure to clean the connectors can result in damage
to the internal connector.
When cleaning the connectors, ensure that the laser is powered off by turning off the push-button
switch. Never inspect optical connectors unless all light sources in your setup have been switched off.
